Summary/Reader Response Draft #1

  A website from Deep trekker ( Deep trekker , 2022) promotes the usage of their underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Among its functions, the ROV can conduct intensive observation under rough conditions and concurrently send live feedback to its user. The GTG3, a miniature class ROV, is a lightweight machine with built-in thrusters, a rotating camera, an Ultra Short baseline (USBL) positioning system, and a state-of-the-art controller with many add-on options to the robot. As mentioned on the webpage, the camera used on the ROV is an enhanced 4k resolution camera that allows users to inspect under dim lighting conditions and provides enhanced clarity with its underwater auto-adjusting functions ( Deep trekker , 2022) . The rotating camera can show a 270-degree view vertically and horizontally of its surroundings ( Deep trekker , 2022) . This feature is helpful when inspecting structures with large areas. Besides the camera, the webpage mentioned that the USBL positioning

Summary Draft 1

The website by Deeptrekker (Deeptrekker, 2022) promotes the usage of underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), GT63. Among its functions, the robot has the capability to conduct intensive observation under rough conditions and send live feedback to the user. In terms of features, the robot is coupled with an enhanced 4K camera, standard USBL and a precision thruster. The enhanced 4k camera allows users to view under low light conditions and provides enhanced clarity with its underwater correction. Like a GPS system, the Ultra-short Baseline (USBL) position system is software where it calculates the positioning of the ROV. Consisting of a transducer on the surface of the water and a transponder on the ROV, it allows an accuracy of 20cm from itself. As mentioned on the webpage, the precision thruster on the machine enables the robot to maneuver vertically with much stability. Accompanied with a rotating camera, the GT63 can provide 270 degrees view vertically upwards and downwards of a

Letter of Self Introduction

Subject: Self Introduction     Dear Professor Brad,     I am writing this letter of self-introduction hoping that you will get to know more about me . My name is Juergen and I graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma in automation and mechatronic system s .   I previously worked in a company that specialises   in the manufacturing of printers and b y working closely with the engineers over there , I have gain ed valuable experience with the automated machines that they are using. Back in my polytechnic days , I have through many hands-on lessons in building  a miniature wheelchair . Those lessons made me real is e d that the world of robot ics is intriguing  and also there were many similar modules that are relevant to the robotics system course hence my reas on to pursue it as my degree .   Communicating with strangers  has always b een tough  for me as I lacked the c ourage to  i nitiat e a conversation with them. The absence of confidence is probably
